i havnt done the repeating a shot in ages, but i have done the adjusting my strings. Hum im not sure what other habbits i do i know i dont have those bad ones of swearing or getting mad or anything but have seen people like that and also dont hit my calf but i do know fellow players that do and yeah they have so many lines by the end of their match.

(1) Stare at my racket face when I made a bad shot as if there is a hole there!
(2) Smoothening the feathers on the shuttle just before I serve.
(3) Making a big detour from the one side of the court to the other side, just to catch my breath!

1) Will say "sorry", "paiseh" ball too high or hit wrong side, "ah ya", "ah yo"...
2) Sometime will laugh at oppoent when they do weird movement.
3) Shout in when shuttle is in & do the same for the reverse.
4) View my string n racket after the shuttle drop to the floor.
5) Do stretching when some body parts a bit cramp or muscle-pull
6) Chit chat when partner have something new or something interesting after the shuttle fall to the ground.
7) Ask anyone who saw the shuttle falls in the court or out when the speed too fast.

i tried the detour around the court too. but my friends always ignore me and proceed with the serve anyway. they know it is just a tactic. but i must say, it is very ungentlemanly of them (though they are girls) to do that. the very least they could do was wait a bit. hehehehe. so now, i dont detour anymore.

In singles, I always assume that my opponent has everything bit of basic footwork, stroke down to perfection, and I end up not knowing what to do until half-way or later in the match when I realize that my opponent usually have more weaknesses than I do.

In doubles, I do show an expression similar to "" or "" when my partner doesn't cover his position properly...eg. I smash from back-court then find out my partner is standing still somewhere else, wondering what's for dinner after badminton
